== Default Font ==



The Arduboy2 Class contains a 5 x 7 pixel font. Additional details can be found in the repo [https://mlxxxp.github.io/documents/Arduino/libraries/Arduboy2/Doxygen/html/classPrint.html here]

A sample program is shown below:

<pre>
#include <Arduboy2.h>
#include "src/fonts/Font3x5.h"

Arduboy2 arduboy;

void setup() {
  arduboy.boot();
}

void loop() {

    if (!(arduboy.nextFrame())) return;

    arduboy.clear();
    arduboy.setCursor(0, 0);
    arduboy.print(F("ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTU\nabcdefghijklmnopqrstu\n1234567890./?!@#$"));

    arduboy.display();

}
</pre>[[File:DefaultFont2.png|frameless]]

== TinyFont ==



TinyFont is a 4x4 font which conforms to small ''ASCII'' from 32-127.

It stores 4 letters in 8 bytes and uses masks to draw the correct letter which makes the sprites 224 bytes in size.

Additional details can be found [https://community.arduboy.com/t/tinyfont-for-arduboy/3136 here] and the repo [https://github.com/yinkou/Arduboy-TinyFont here]

A sample program is shown below:

<pre>
#include <Arduboy2.h>
#include "Tinyfont.h"

Arduboy2 arduboy;
Tinyfont tinyfont = Tinyfont(arduboy.sBuffer, Arduboy2::width(), Arduboy2::height());

void setup() {
    arduboy.begin();
}

void loop() {

    if (!(arduboy.nextFrame())) return;

    arduboy.clear();
    tinyfont.setCursor(1, 0);
    tinyfont.print(F("THE QUICK BROWN FOX JUMPS\nOVER THE LAZY DOG."));
    tinyfont.setCursor(1, 11);
    tinyfont.print(F("The quick brown fox jumps\nover the lazy dog."));

    arduboy.display();

}
</pre>

== Font3x5 ==


Font3x5 is a simple library that provides a 3 x 5 pixel font which has the upper- and lower-case alphabet, numbers and the exclamation mark and the period.  You can easily add extra characters if you like.

There is a #define that allows you to remove the lower case letters.  Doing so strips out 108 bytes.  Additional details can be found [https://community.arduboy.com/t/3x5-font-for-those-with-good-eyesight/4920 here] and the repo [https://github.com/filmote/Font3x5 here]

A sample program is shown below:

<pre>
#include <Arduboy2.h>
#include "src/fonts/Font3x5.h"

Arduboy2Base arduboy;
Font3x5 font3x5 = Font3x5();

void setup() {
   arduboy.begin();
}

void loop() {

    if (!(arduboy.nextFrame())) return;

    arduboy.clear();
    font3x5.setCursor(12, 12);
    font3x5.print(F("ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ"));
    font3x5.print(F("\nabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz"));
    font3x5.print(F("\n0123456789"));
    font3x5.print(F("\n!."));

    arduboy.display();

}
</pre>

You can also pass a line height to the constructor, as shown below:

<code>Font3x5 font3x5 = Font3x5( 11 );</code>

The two images below show the standard line height - 8 - and 11.

== Font4x6 ==

Font4x6 is a simple library that provides a 4 x 6 pixel font which has the upper- and lower-case alphabet, numbers and the exclamation mark and the period.  You can easily add extra characters if you like.

There is a #define that allows you to remove the lower case letters.  Doing so strips out 108 bytes. Additional details can be found [https://community.arduboy.com/t/4x6-font-for-the-arduboy/5589 here] and the repo [https://github.com/filmote/Font4x6 here]

A sample program is shown below:

<pre>
#include <Arduboy2.h>
#include "src/fonts/Font4x6.h"

Arduboy2Base arduboy;
Font4x6 font4x6 = Font4x6();

void setup() {

    arduboy.boot();

}

void loop() {

    if (!(arduboy.nextFrame())) return;

    arduboy.clear();
    font4x6.setCursor(12, 12);
    font4x6.print(F("ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ"));
    font4x6.print(F("\nabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz"));
    font4x6.print(F("\n0123456789"));
    font4x6.print(F("\n!."));

    arduboy.display();

}
</pre>

You can also pass a line height to the constructor, as shown below:

<code>Font4x6 font4x6 = Font4x6( 11 );</code>
